i have succesfully landed in hong kong and landed in my hotel with my parents. i am living in kowloon.
first thing i did when i got here was check out the neighbourhood and because ive been hearing all these good things about this infamous "sneaker street" i was curious to go check it out and since i was living quite near it, it was a good opportunity.
my verdict of hk thus far is that it is as good as it is bad. doesnt make much sense.
the "sneaker street" area of kowloon is like a little cbd full of sneaker stores as far as the eye can see. unfortunately, the price is pretty much the same or even more expensive than melbourne and it is essentially 1000 stores with the same stock. every store has the same shit except a couple of stores had vans whilst most didnt.
here i am thinking that i was gonna cop a pair of cheap van eras for like 40 bucks to beat up whils t im in asia, but no, they cost like 80 aud here too =[
plane trip wasnt bad, i had john legend to put me in a trance like state for about 30 minutes and i also watched a bit of possibly the worst movie ever made in the history of man kind, its called:
kung fu hiphop
i watched the first 10 minutes, i really couldnt bare anymore. it had chicken from YnD as the main character and omg, i have lost so much respect for him. that movie really really really sucked.
anyway, hopefully my hongkong experience gets better starting tommorow. see y'all soon

haha, hong kong is never cheaper than aus, you need to go across the border to shenzhen, there's this place called dong men there, and you can get all the stuff you want for much cheaper prices.
and there are heaps of korean kids in shenzhen as well, it's pretty much koreanville (student population wise, and by student i guess i really mean high school students + their parents). but anyway they all dress the same too. skinny jeans, sneakers/hitops, plaid shirt and tie. lol.
